It's ok, we know you don't want to stop Trump. Everybody has their opinion.

I'd disappointed Julia Louis-Dreyfus didn't make the list.

Ok, thanks for that.
I'll put 10 grand on Kamala Harris.
I'll even go further, since predictions are always fun. Biden wins the election and soon becomes incapacitated or dies from his obvious alzheimer's. 25th Amendment gets enacted (if even needed) and Harris becomes the first woman president in US history, just as GloboHomo wanted.
No it isn't. This is what happens when "not racist" white people are faced with very real truth of racial politics. Their votes were staggered between Sanders, Warren, and Buttigieg. They were unable to form a cohesive voting bloc and lost to the unified black vote. They lost. Get used to it.

My "guy" was Elizabeth Warren, and yes, she is megaparsecs above him. She is a soaring eagle and he is a dung beetle. She is Yoda and he is Jar-Jar Binks.

I don’t have to get used to the consequences of the decline of the US into an anti-intellectual and selfish cluster **** with a disgusting wealth divide. Biden won’t fix that.
Best wishes.

Frankly, I think a comparison is inevitable, as Biden's primary role is going to be rebuilding what Lord Dampnut has ruined i terms of domestic policy. With any luck, the GOP will also lose the senate, the dems there will come to their senses and toss the filibuster entirely, and he can get to business. His proposals aren't my ideal, and he has nowhere near the planning Harris and Warren did in particular, but anyone that claims that he's not proposing anything is simply nt looking.
As far as international reputation goes...man, I have no idea what to do on that front. After Cheeto Benito's plainly ignorant and destructive behavior, it's going to go well beyond just Biden - it's on the voters to remember "Oh, right, that guy that keeps badmouthing our allies and tongue-bathing dictators probably won't be a good president" for the foreseeable future - or at least, enough of us to overwhelm the inevitable ignorant cultists that arise around that sort of fool the way the MAGAts did.
(and no, I'm not buying the "pull 15 seconds out of an hour long interview and claim it's proof that he has dementia" thing FOX News and the Bernie Stans have been pulling lately, y'all are too obvious.)

And while it's easy (and fun!) to mock Biden's risible buffoonery, the problems with him are much deeper and much more sinister. He's been a willing agent for the finance industry's worst interests for decades. Him being "the senator from MBNA" has been far more destructive to the public than his stupid plagiarisms or folksy-handsiness with girls' shoulders. Biden's been one of the rats furthering the plague that created the environment in which monsters like Trump can flourish. He may be the lesser evil this time, but that doesn't mean he's anything good.

The rumor is that Lucas envisioned him as a powerful Sith lord, but Binks was so widely perceived and hated as a bumbling caricature that Lucas realized he could never sell Binks as the other thing.
Some or all of that might be a metaphor for Joe Biden. I don't know.

I'd just like to pop in again to reiterate how glad I am Bernie lost. Not because of Bernie but because I HATED HIS SUPPORTERS SO MUCH! Seriously I would have preferred the extinction of humans as species to Bernie Bros getting a win. I have been drinking their tears since the campaign went down in flames. I'm glad they are in so much pain. Serves them right.
Back to whatever it was you were all discussing.

Are you trolling or are you seriously saying that you won't be voting for Biden this fall? If so, who will you be voting for instead?

Yeah, some of those Bernie supporters are entitled, melodramatic, self-centered jerks, huh?

False accusations against one's opponents' supporters is a bad behavior itself... one which has been uniquely characteristic of a few of the crazier examples of Biden's chess pigeons. I guess that's the kind of desperation move you need to resort to when you're "supporting" somebody that even you can't think of a single actual reason to support.

Maybe you will help me understand. Who will you be voting for this fall?

I'll admit it was amusing watching the KHive knock David Sirota and Brianha Joy Gray over and riverdance on them - I honestly have no clue why Sanders hired such deliberately divisive people - but I'd still rather have every state vote their primary on the same day (and yes, primary, not caucus). I've said befoe that I had considered switching to the GOP and voting for Bill Weld, since both he and Joe Walsh (of all people) would seemingly make far better presidents than Dolt 45. Weld I know would, and Walsh, while a complete fool during the Obama Era, seems to be making a serious effort to redeem himself. But at this point, it's Biden vs. Cheeto, and we're not even at my state's original voting date, much less the COVID-19 delayed date.
